Got "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" warning

Hi everyone,

Yesterday I got "Service Engine Soon" warning on my 2014 x1 x28i all of a sudden. A few seconds later, I saw "Close Gas Cap" (or something similar mentioning gas cap) warning, but then it disappeared. But the "Service Engine Soon" is still there.

I removed and tighten the gas cap but didn't do anything. I don't have Navi.

I have Burger Motor Sports Stage 1 tune installed.

I was wondering if the warning was due to gas cap and computer needs to be reset in order to remove it...Or is it because of the tune?

I also wonder if it presents any risks to drive the car although I didn't notice anything arrange wit it after the warning showed up.

Thanks in advace

I had the cap warning light and as mentioned it will go away but it took its time removing itself like 2 or 3 days.

Thanks guys. As you said, it went away after ~200 miles of driving.

Isn't pumping your own gas "illegal" in NJ? It probably wasn't tightened correctly by the pump jockey.

I moved car in Germany since car next to me seemed too close, and forgot I had fill cap open.

I got same code that lasted until dealer cleared when back in Texas.

X1 s28i also had very strong gas smell first day, and I thought something was really wrong. Luckily not, but why didn't my 2 week driving cycle fix it?

For mine I had to fill it up with gas once or twice so it wasn't the driving that really cleared it the refilling and closing the cap did it I think.
